Liverpool and Virgil van Dijk “Can’t Wait” to Face Atletico Madrid

Liverpool are back in Europe tonight, and they kick off their 2026-27 Champions League campaign with what on paper at least is their toughest test of the entire league phase with Diego Simeone’s Atletico Madrid arriving on Merseyside to face Andoni Iraola’s Reds under the lights at Anfield.

Rumour Mongering: Liverpool Target Frankfurt Sporting Director

With Richard Hughes officially out at Liverpool, many will expect a quick appointment of his successor given his departure has been known going back at least to the end of last season.

Taylor on Liverpool Women’s 4-0 Win: “We Will Only Get Better”

Liverpool Women finished second-last in the FA Women’s Super League last season and for much of the year seemed favourites to end up relegated.

There was a time not too far back […]

Have Liverpool Finally Unlocked Alexander Isak?

After last season’s struggle for Alexander Isak to find fitness only to then suffer a broken leg, it was hard for anyone to assess whether the drawn out transfer saga and price was worth it for the highly rated Swedish striker. It perhaps didn’t help Isak either that the excellent form of Hugo Ekitike, another […]

Everything’s the Best: Signs of Life

Liverpool’s only objective on Friday was to get three points.
